SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity, has recognised several of its Scottish volunteers for their dedication to helping the Armed Forces community at its latest Scotland Regional Recognition Awards (RRA).
Liam Wallace, Dumfries & Galloway Branch’s Secretary, was one of the Regional Recognition Award winners.
The biannual awards were established in 2023 to formally acknowledge extra endeavour by SSAFA volunteers, staff and external supporters across its network of 17 branches in Scotland.
The latest RRA recipients include:
- Colette Chiesa, of the Ayrshire branch
- Elaine Mcfadyen, of the Ayrshire branch
- Fran Good, of the Edinburgh & Lothians branch
- Janet Marshall, of the Dunbartonshire branch
- Liam Wallace, of the Dumfries & Galloway branch
- Mags Granger, of the Edinburgh & Lothians branch
- Shirley Lumby, of the Grampian branch
For those who could attend, they received SSAFA Scotland Region plaques at the charity’s Scotland Resource Committee meeting, held 4 March at Volunteer Scotland, Jubilee House, in Stirling.
Walter Gallacher, Convenor of the Scottish Resource Committee at SSAFA, commented: “The people behind SSAFA, from volunteers to supporters, are what helps us support the Armed Forces community when in need. It is always hard to choose a few people to recognise from the many who work tirelessly across Scotland, but I am very pleased to congratulate our latest RRA recipients.”
